Florida man arrested after trying to cross Atlantic in hamster wheel vessel

Reza Baluchi tried to "run" from Florida to London in a homemade vessel during hurricane season.

Extremely tenuous AD link here, I know, but this is just so ridiculous, that it could have been part of the show.

I hope he has a good maritime lawyer.

    Lol I say let the man live. They should make him come up with a plan for safely extracting his vessel without polluting the ocean though, and maybe make him hire some pilot boats like long distance swimmers do.

      Kind of what I thought, at least until I saw the bit about making bomb threats!

        Yeah that bit is a little worrisome! Sounds like quite a character. Glad there were no real bombs.
